Barnsley secured a crucial 2-1 victory over Exeter City with an impressive first-half display that proved decisive at Oakwell. David McGoldrick opened the scoring after just eight minutes, before Vimal Yoganathan doubled the advantage with a well-taken finish eight minutes later. The Tykes controlled the opening period, but Exeter showed resilience after the break, pulling one back through Jayden Wareham with 15 minutes remaining to set up a nervy finale. Despite late pressure from the Grecians, Barnsley held firm to claim three valuable points that should ease any relegation concerns and potentially kick-start a climb up the League One table.
